Volunteers are the heart of NVGS! As an all-volunteer organization, every member's contribution makes a big difference.

To ensure a successful future, we need members to serve in key volunteer positions. Many tasks are intermittent or involve just a couple hours per month, and can be performed from home or at our library.

Look over the opportunities described below, then email the contact listed for each one.  To explore other possibilities, email President@NapaGenSoc.org.

We'll update this list as needs arise. Check back frequently to see what we've added!

Digital Historian

When we turned 50 last year, we dove into our paper archives and were reminded of NVGS's unique and amazing history! We'd like to dust off that history and get it scanned and digitally archived. If you love being immersed in books, files, and other treasures, consider volunteering for our digital history project. Some computer experience needed, but specific training will be provided.

Contact President@NapaGenSoc.org

Photo Scanning

Recent acquisitions have left us with many historical photos to scan! Help us preserve Napa County and California history by tackling this project. Again, some computer experience is needed, but training is provided.

Cataloging

This year's library reorganization has revealed catalog revisions that need to be made, in addition to our usual ongoing cataloging. Training provided.

Saturday Library Support

Many working members, as well as weekend visitors to our area, would love to be able to access our library on Saturdays. We've got 1st Saturdays covered. If you can offer a couple of hours one Saturday per month, let us know. Training provided.

Tech Support

Do your friends refer to you as their Help Desk? Are you good with Windows technology? We're looking for someone to swing by the Library regularly to perform routine updates, as well as troubleshoot computers, printers, and scanners as needed. Join our Tech Team!

Graphic Design

If you have a professional graphic design background, we could use your help: we need to revise a few of our core pieces and want to create a couple new ones! It's low stress: we'll tackle one project at a time with soft deadlines.
